Anyone go to the best buy demo event today?. They gave out some free swag like a sticker book, switch lanyards, and Odyssey postcards. Would have stuck around to try the 1 demo station but there was a line so I just got my swag and left for the gym lol.

By SwitchproGo To Posthow is sms linear? genuinely asking? i feel like there's ton of speedrun potential. all moons speedrun will take ages tho.

The way SMS is structured is that to complete the game, without glitches, required collecting 50 shines in a linear order. SMS eventually got broken and now it's pretty popular, but it took a while to get where it is now.

i see. well it's a bit more linear than 64 but less than sunshine. you need a certain amount of moons to move on and you need to get like a bunch of "story" moons but the rest is up to you and there are lots of moons available. i see a lot of potential in finding better routes.

This will be one of the few games this year that I buy full price, day one. I'm usually pretty keen on waiting but I absolutely must have this game at launch. The feelings of just... pure joy that it gives me when I see it are too much. God, I cannot wait for Friday. I need to get around to pre-ordering on Amazon already for the 20% discount.

First post here, seeing some familiar avatars from websites of yore, and also many new ones (including mine, my hipster bunny has now become cool officer bun). Well met!

I'm so excited for this. It's also the first time in a long while that I've managed to stay away from watching extensive gameplay footage of a high-profile Nintendo game. I know a few of the kingdom's themes, names etc. but apart from at most a screenshot or two I know very little about what's in them. Gonna be great seeing it all on Friday (if I can survive the wait).

Another first poster, and I can’t say how much I’ve been waiting for this. I enjoyed the likes of NSMB on Wii U, and Super Mario 3D Land, but I’ve been waiting for a full on 3D Mario for an age. What I’ve seen of the game so far looks mesmerising, and I can see me losing plenty of time to the game once more.

I don't own a Switch yet, but Nintendo is making it so hard for me not to buy one. But I still can't buy one, too many stuff professionally related to sort out this year, unfortunately got no time for a new gaming console.

Anyway, if Odyssey really does live up to all the hype, the Switch is going to have a legendary first year of life, damn.

First post! Hello. My name is Todd. I'm a libra. I enjoy candlelight dinners for 2, fuzzy blankets, long walks on the beach, and Mario!!!!! Can't wait to grab this game. Me and my son are gonna have a blast!
